Oh, the night came undone like a party dress   And fell at her feet in a beautiful mess   The smoke and the whiskey came home in her curls   And they crept through the dreams of the barroom girls      Well, she tosses and turns because the sun is unkind   And the heat of the day is coming in through the blinds   Leave all the blue skies for the rest of the world   Because the neon will shine for the barroom girls      Ah, the barroom girls go by your side   Like the ponies who pass on a carousel ride   And all of the colors go around in a swirl   When you dance in the arms of the barroom girls      Now she rolls to her feet when she can't sleep no more   Looks at her clothes lying out on the floor   Last night's spangles and yesterday's pearls   Are the bright morning stars of the barroom girls      Last night's spangles and yesterday's pearls   Are the bright morning stars of the barroom girls
